Тексты песен Gerry Rafferty

Текст песни "Long Way Round"


I stood and looked across the waterI had to get to the other sideBecause I knew that you'd be waitin'I didn't want to take the long way ‘round.
The captain said the ship was leavin'And that we'd better get on boardI settled down to watch the sunriseAnd wondered if I'd see the sun go down.
The sea was rough and the wind was howlin'But I was laughing all the wayI didn't care about the weatherBecause I knew that you'd be waitin'I didn't want to take the long way ‘round
Then a stranger sat beside meIt was my brother in disguiseHe said he knew where I was goin'He asked me why I took the long way ‘round.
The sea was rough and the wind was howlin'But I was laughing all the wayI didn't listen to the strangerBecause I knew that you'd be waitin'I didn't want to take the long way ‘round
At last, I came to my destinationThe stranger turned and walked awayHe didn't know where he was goin'He said he had to take the long way ‘round.
I stood and looked across the waterI thought of what I'd left behindBecause I knew that you'd be waitin'I didn't want to take the long way ‘round.
Because I knew that you'd be waitin'I didn't want to take the long way ‘round.
